16 Brave Fundraisers Abseiled Liverpool Cathedral for Sefton 4 Good

16 fundraisers from across Merseyside faced their fears and abseiled down Liverpool Cathedral's iconic West door. On Saturday, 15 July 2023, the day started with dark clouds, heavy rain and thunderstorms, however, the showers couldn't dampen the fundraisers' enthusiasm. Luckily, the weather cleared in the afternoon and the intrepid fundraisers took to the ropes.

Descending 150ft, the brave abseilers have, so far, raised over £2,800 for Sefton 4 Good which helps local good causes in the community. The Liverpool Cathedral Abseil is a unique experience and is a great way to raise money to help keep the borough of Sefton vibrant and resilient.

5 staff members from the Cheshire and Merseyside Resilience Hub (CMRH) took part as a team. 1 of the participants from CMRH said:- "So we did it, we absolutely smashed it! 5 members of the team came together and faced their fears of heights and abseiled 150 feet off the iconic Liverpool cathedral. We raised over £650 for Sefton 4 Good. 1 of the reasons we chose this is because it gives back to local communities."

The staff at CMRH also created a video of their experience take a look.

3 staff members from Sefton CVS (the managing body of Sefton 4 Good) also took part. Between them, they have so far raised over £800. Social prescriber, Katy Bryson said:- "I was really nervous initially, heart thumping in my chest when climbing up the ladder onto the platform, but the staff were reassuring and calm and I loved it! Felt exhilarating coming down, and the view was amazing! We want to say a big congratulations to all our fundraisers. It's not an easy feat to abseil off a platform 150ft up in the air,' Said event organiser Lauren Jones. 'We are really proud of all our fundraisers not only for facing their fears, but also for the amount they have raised. All of the vital donations from this event will go to help local good caused across Sefton. I want to give them all a big Thank you!"
